Pros and cons of working at Herbert Smith Freehills AU
Pros
- The networks I am building from the amount of talented people I come into contact with - The steep learning curve; we are constantly being challenged and pushed - The branding associated with my workplace
The high calibre of the training you receive and the respect you are treated with by all staff.
Working on great matters with great people.
I am empowered to grow and take responsibility right from the get-go. There are numerous opportunities for mentoring and development, both legally and commercially.
Working with the best minds in the legal industry and working with sophisticated clients.
Cons
The long hours and high pressure environment.
Hours can be long when busy.
Sometimes the hierarchy can mean work is not provided to you in the most timely way.
Irregular hours and lack of control of workflow.
Sometimes there are long hours and late nights but that is to be expected when working at a top tier commercial law firm.
